  2. Avataric Mission I have a "Task": To foster all mankind and ensure for all of them lives full of bliss (ananda). I have a "Vow": To lead all who stray away from the straight path again into goodness and save them. I am attached to a "work" that I love: To remove the sufferings of the poor and grant them what they lack. 25/05/1947

  3. Celebrating Avatar Declaration Day 2013 SERVE THE PLANET A Global Service Initiative by SathyaSaiOrganisations Worldwide “The core of the spiritual discipline of service is to see everyone as yourself and yourself in everyone. You are not doing service to others, you are doing service to yourselves, to the God in you who is equally present in all” SathyaSai Baba 21/11/1981

  4. SERVE THE PLANET SSSSO UK Activities 1. UK Sai Centres providing food items to their local food bank(s) starting w/c 14th October 2. On October 20th 2013, all 8 Regions of UK will be serving food in homeless shelters 3. Laksharchana Programme in London on October 20th 2013

  5. SERVE THE PLANET NarayanaSeva with Naamasmarana “You arrange dinner parties and picnic……………… Instead I would ask you to feed some hungry people with the delicious dishes, people who have never had in their lives the joy of having eaten a full meal, not to speak of a rich meal. Serve man as God. Give food to the hungry, food that is the gift of Goddess Nature. Give it with love, and humility, give it sweetened with the name of the Lord” BABA

Only chanting of the Divine Name is the real tapas (penance), real tirtha (place of pilgrimage), and kshetra (holy place). Therefore, namasankirtan has supreme importance in the life of man. Chant the Divine Name constantly and redeem your life. BABA 19/7/1996
